Player Info

Irritating yet funny player, a combination of traits that rarely lets her see end game. Initially a lynchalicious player and easy target for the scum to wagon, has become over time more of a dangerous wildcard for the scum to eliminate at night. A choice target for Night 0 actions of every kind. DrippingGoofball is bertrand's mother. DrippingGoofball has been wrecking havoc in mafia games since December 23, 2005.

Health Status

Suffers from congenital, chronic cyanomegaencephalitis. The condition is easily diagnosed by visual inspection, and identification of a large, blue head with fried egg googly eyes.

Motto

Paraphrasing a role PM takes seconds, fabricating a good fakeclaim can take a lifetime.

Quotes

Percy: "DGB, we decided to kill you off because your unpredictability made us feel very vulnerable."

Battle Mage: "DGB thinks she can talk her way out of anything"

Xylthixlm: "I'd prefer to think of myself as 'A cross between Yosarian2 and DGB.'"

Jazzmyn: "DrippingGoofball: *shakes head* [Forrest Gump]And that's all I have to say about that.[/Forrest Gump]"

farside22: "God the stuff you come up with is priceless."

zwetschenwasser: "Tar is making the huge mistake of trying to condense DGB's playstyle into two sentences."

vollkan: "it is hypocritical to lambast DGB as useless when she is really only taking gut-based play to its logical extent of "nothing matters so anything goes")"

StrangerCoug: "Somebody take DrippingGoofball out to the street and shoot her."

ILord: "her colorful disregard for seriousness is one of the certitudes of mafia."

roflcopter: "dgb gives me a warm fuzzy feeling. that has no bearing on her alignment at all, i just like her."

Korts: "she's not afraid to stir up shit with her bare hands, as in fishing for emotions, reactions etc. "

Cogito Ergo Sum: "...we are talking about DrippingGoofball. Your scum tells do not apply here."

TheStatusQuo: "So we get rid of ZA and then have to deal with DGB? Ugh...I hate this game so much."

Adele"See, the problem with DGB is she's so committed and earnest. She'll put hours and hours into research, then use an irrelevant item of information to determine her obvscum and extrapolate an elaborate theorum from the obvscum premise. 3 pages later, she'll repeat, with a high chance of ruling out her prior obvscum as now obvtown. Lather, rinse, repeat. I suggest we try to ignore her until she makes a substantive and useful point (which she'll do every once in a while, just to force you to read all of her immense posts)."

Mastermind of Sin: "I'm wary of DGB because a game like this strikes me as one where insanity (as opposed to stupidity, in the case of Quagmire) could be a highly effective strategy for scum."

Justin Playfair: "...her play style can be strange and offputting."

armlx: "You aren't getting her. No one is."

Azrael from MTG: "You're weird. You act genuine, AND you act precisely as the scum do. You're either a tremendous actor but a poor liar, or you're a behaviorally unique townie player. At some point we really do need to find out which it is."

ZONEACE: "It's DGB. Motivation is irrelevant."

cicero: "And because DGB is normally ridiculously hungry to scumhunt and push for info and basically act like a kinetic dervish as town, I found her gum chewing giving up routine to be a possible strong scum tell."

Yosarian2: "...female scummers in general might be less likely to instinctively respond to any problem with a direct head-on confrontation then male scummers are, but there are some pretty clear exception to that (DGB, for example)."

IdiotKing: "Let me see how to word this... DGB does not make sense. She doesn't even seem to try to. I have no interest in DGB's meta. Do you think I should spend hours and hours and hours and hours and hours of my life trying to figure out randomness such as hers? No, no no no no no. Can YOU explain to me why she does what she does? And not meta, explain to me what's going on in her brain. You can't be a mindreader obviously, but I can't even begin to say what her motives are. And so I find her destructive, an infection waiting to spread and contaminate everything."

Claims to Fame

• Famous for being scum on a Post Restriction Mini where she faked a debilitating restriction: posts consisted only of emoticons. Check out this typical example of an emoticon-laden post
• Favorite caper/role: replacing Vaughn in Post Restriction Mega where she inherited the role of Kamikaze, a role DGB was born to play. Twomz had 10/11 votes, and a deadline was looming. There was precious little time to get oneself lynched, and every night entailed the risk of being nightkilled. Two pages was all it took to steal all of Twomz's votes and have herself thouroughly and gloriously lynched.
• Favorite out-of-game fun: The Great Nibbler Takeover of 2008. Nibbler graphics always win.

Claims to Shame

• Claimed scum in Covert Ops with disastrous results for the game
• Got herself lynched as a Mason in Best of the Internet.
• Was genuinely hoping to fool people with this Loser claim in Bastard Mod.
